as someone already brought up this issue in another post, why does so 
many people picture Cedric as a "light hair/Blonde"??? (see Steve's 
reference of "more Brad Pitt, Matt Damon type) when in the canon 
Cedric was described to have dark hair?? Almost 99% of the casting 
suggestion I came across in many HP board for Cedric are all your 
typical blond pretty boy when Cedric is supposed to have dark/darker 
tone hair!

This is quite similar to the case of Draco. Even though it's clearly 
written in the canon more than once that Draco has "white Blonde 
hair" (aka blonder than your average blonde!). However when the first 
movie came out, lots of people complained that "Draco should have 
dark hair" or screamed "I always imagined Draco having Dark hair" and 
claimed the movie people "made a mistake" blah blah. This just really 
puzzle me. 

or could this be some kind of deep-root stereotypes in which a "nice 
popular handsome boy" should be a blond pretty boy, while the "nasty 
bully" should be a dark hair ugly guy or something like that? Can 
those who always imagine Cedric as blond or Draco as dark can 
enlighten me your reasons?
